Ann and her team are passionate equestrians devoted to exploring the profound connection between horse and human. A dedicated dressage rider, Ann views the sport as both a discipline and a dance. Together, she and her staff invest extensive time in training, competing, and attending seminars and clinics that deepen their understanding of the equine and human mind—and the powerful relationship between the two. Through riding with advanced equestrians, Ann has discovered that the lessons learned through the horse extend far beyond the saddle, shaping every aspect of how clients engage with and learn from the horse.
Our team at Upbeat Equine consists of licensed and associate level counselors specialized in various therapeutic approaches. We are passionate about helping individuals through innovative and effective methods.
